Your local Nissan dealership still has the formula in the system they can look it up and provide it
That’s what I did when I wanted a sample made

I had car #132 and it was 531 paint color. When I had her repainted this is what the shop used:

Du Pont Chromabase color code:

Tinting Guide Mix Size: 128.0 oz (gallon)
819J FINE BRIGHT ALUMINUM 352.2
4530S FLOP CONTROL AGENT 562.7
890J TRANSOX YELO 734.6
805J JET BLACK 855.3
801J HS WHITE 949.7
816J MED FINE ALUM 993.5
150K B/C BALANCER 2839.3
175K BINDER 3533.5

The car belongs to a member here if you'd like him to send you some photos of the car in sun, etc.

Things have been going slowly for the last few months with the build. The car is still at the body shop hoping to have it back September. In the meantime it been Christmas in July. Last Friday I received my full wiring harness from Curtis. Very satisfied with his work. Today I received my gauges from Jon Frampton, I'm very impressed with the quality of his work. I'm looking forward to building the dash this weekend
Also build the seats and painted some interior parts , will update with pictures once I resize them

The car in almost ready for paint. There was a spot behind the door panel that still had the original color . My painter took the door in and had it scanned and mixed up a small batch to make a spray out sample. I have not seen 531 in person can you guys tell if the sample is a match
I going to take a look at the sample tomorrow

Wow, an amazing, amazing job. Do you by chance have the dimensions of the jig that you built to hold the body? Your pictures are making me feel ambitious. :-)

That’s one heck of an update! It’s looking fantastic, well done. That’s going to be one sharp looking lady.
